[QUOTE="agmantoo, post: 749238, member: 8973"] cowsrus The harrow I use was purchased for $75 and it had a nearly new log chain attached for the tongue that was worth most of the price. It was a spike type harrow once upon a time but now it is more of a stub harrow. Some previous owner did modify the harrow to add a 3 inch pipe to affix the 3 sections to for alignment and to act as a heavy duty tongue. I had a chain harrow previously and it was just marginally OK. With the spike harrow having the spikes worn the horizontal bars are down to where they burst the manure patties and scatter them. I can scatter about 4 acres per hour so the task moves along well enough to suit me. I scatter the manure for the obvious reasons such as keeping the fertility uniform, to get the cattle to graze the complete paddocks and to reduce fly reproduction. I also use the tool get some seed coverage when I broadcast seed or where the cattle pats contain seed. [/QUOTE]
